Who: You!
When: Day 115, Evening
Where: Level 3, baths and common area.
What: POOL PARTY -- sort of...

[So you may hear some firecrackers going off on level 3, loudly. But just to get your attention! When you arrive you will find a that the tables of the mess area have been moved near the baths, and the whole section seems to be obscured from the rest of the common area with glass beaded curtains (floating without string) for the sake of those who are modest.

The tables have been laid out with a bunch of ingredients: some kind of creamy fish salad (like tuna), slices of meat in various flavors and textures, leafy greens, sprouts, slices of some sort of fruit or vegetable that tastes a bit tangy, there are even some cheeses, and bread. Lots of bread, already sliced up and ready for sandwich making. On some of the tables are a few tabletop grills and more cuts of meat (someone has even managed to introduce burger meats to Thusia at some point, though it's not beef). These are raw and arranged with various condiments, sauces, and seasonings nearby to barbeque with. For those less inclined to making food, there are bowls of cut fruit of various kinds (careful, some of those might be gummelons--aka zen melons).

Within the baths themselves, many towels have been provided, some wicker furniture to relax in as well, and the water itself is running clean and cool in the river, with the hot tubs steaming pleasantly beside.

Dellen's script has been left on the wall nearby:]

It's good to relax now and then.



((ooc: FOOD SHENANIGANS!

Eating food that you prepared yourself is basically safe. You might feel a bit of an energy boost but not much else will happen to you.

HOWEVER, eating food prepared by someone else will temporarily influence you with one of the personality traits of the person who prepared the food! It will generally be a personality trait that the cook considers to be positive about themselves (friendly, organized, commanding... being a sexy bombshell... if they're that sort of person...), but that can be pretty subjective. Those affected can choose either to play the personality trait as the cook sees it or as their own chara would see it.

Cooks and/or sandwich makers, be sure to list a few personality traits people can take on if you do a top-comment offering food.

Eaters (or.. whatever I should call you), you can either replace a personality trait you picked up if you eat from a different cook or have the effects stack on top of each other. Effects can last from half an hour to a whole day, depending what you want to play with.))

When: Day 114, Evening and alll night long~
Where: In ur dreams
What: Dream post!

[Maybe you have gotten used to the regular hum of the HQ's engines as it flies slowly over a rippling canopy. Maybe you even find their sound soothing as you drift off tonight... Or maybe you don't drift off at all, maybe wherever you are, whatever you were doing, you just find yourself inexplicably sleepy.

Whatever it is, you end up in dreams. Your dreams? Or someone else's? It's hard to say.]



((OOC: DREAM POST!

For those of you who have never participated in a dream post, everyone interested in running a character's dream posts a top level comment and people comment to that to be in that character's dream. There are basically no rules about how it works! Be a lucid dreamer, don't be, figure it out halfway through, push and pull between who controls the dream. w/e have fun! If you need an OOC excuse to be asleep you can totally assume Rew's power just made your character unreasonably tired at some point. Solitary dreamers will find ocean waters rising in and drowning out their dreams, but Rew won't be making any appearances in this post.))

Who: Everyone
When: Day 112, morning
Where: Everywhere
What: FLYING

AND SO WE LAUNCH. THE HQ LURCHES. There's a faint humming and the less faint (more like loudly crashing) sounds of branches breaking as the HQ shakes and trembles, as it slowly, in grinding starts and stops, breaks free from the tree and accompanying vines that had been trying to wrap itself around the HQ the whole time it's been perched there.

It starts to tilt uncomfortably to the right, tipping out of the tree, more vines snapping off and dropping into the swamp far below, and for a moment it feels like it might just topple completely out, but there's another shiver, a slightly louder hum, and the building starts to right itself, starts to rise up slowly in the air as the insides of the engine shafts glow with a white/blue energy. People inside the HQ by the windows can see the bellies of the the lizagons who've claimed the HQ as they climb out and down the sides of the building, inspecting it cautiously.

As the sea of trees recede enough that those in the HQ can get a lovely view of how expansive the jungle is, the HQ slowly, slowly starts drifting along its route south, then west.





Btw southwest is still where the Matriarch is approaching from. ETA: OK YUKARI CHANGE THE ROUTE NORTHWARD

Who: Eizon + You!
When: Day 110, Afternoon
Where: Shrine area >> Portal Room
What: The number of shrines are looking a little thinner...

[If you come to the shrine area around this time, you will find Eizon there as Agon and Ambre's shrines pack themselves up and disappear. Eizon doesn't seem especially pleased about it, but he's fairly unreadable.

Also of note; Alain's shrine is also gone, and Kalidas' is burning low and not answering hers.

Eizon doesn't disappear, instead walks down to the third level, to the room next to the baths. It has been mostly empty save for a desk and filing cabinet, and not much used for a long time, but now, along the back wall, there is a large squarish black...something. It is like a textureless matte along the wall.

Eizon snaps his fingers and a digital clock appears over the portal. It reads:

Time Until Open: 00:01:34:42

It instantly begins to count down, with the right most set of numbers obviously the seconds ticking away.


You're welcome to run into Eizon anywhere at the shrine area, down near the portal, or anywhere in between.]


((OOC: The portal to the base in the second building will open every other day, once in the morning and once in the evening! It will remain open for an hour each time. Eizon's clock will always reset each time the portal opens and begin counting down to it's next opening.

We decided on every other day so that if it is an even numbered day you can assume it's a day you can go through the portal!))

[So, a certain informant heard a rumor that there have been trinkets being lost and found, but more interesting are the reactions to current events while this is all going on. It shouldn't be any surprise that this guy randomly appears in an area, seemingly from nowhere.

He may also be fiddling around with a PDA or something like that. Who knows?]

When: Day 101, morning
Where: Everywhere in HQ
What: It is dark. You may be eaten by a grue.

[You'd think, that during the day, the lack of power would be less of an issue. But somehow, the long halls, the vast number of rooms isolated from windows, the deeper in you get, the darker it gets.

Sometimes, it's 'home' that is the most unforgiving, deep shadows.

Sometimes, it's the hallways where you're really not sure what time of day it is.

But right now, it's when you carry those candles, torches, magic and flashlights or those dying sprigs of fairylights, that the shadows seem to take a real depth. They take a certain life that jumps and springs and slithers in your peripheral vision.



You feel something watching you.]
[personal profile] technocracy
Who: Anyone!
When: Day 96, Late afternoon
Where: Level 2
What: Some gizmo-ing

[There are still an awful lot dragons outside! Both on level five but mostly populating the outdoors in general. Fortunately, they haven't shown much interest in breaking into the HQ and eating everyone, but going outside would be incredibly dangerous and probably an invitation to become a dragon's snack. If anyone is curious about what the hell is up with that, there is a helpful bulletin on the subject!


But perhaps far more eyecatching is the fact that on the staircases of levels 2, 3 and 4, one might find some glowing arrows standing out brightly against the stone. There will also be a glowing message that reads:

"Build and fuel the generator if would like this building to run, and fly, on it's own power."

Following the arrows will take you to center, open are of Level 2, Floor 1. There are a lot of various parts laid out in a neat order, but unless you are a mechanical wizard you will probably need to crack open that instruction manual to figure out how to put it together. Necessary tools are also provided.

It's hard to tell exactly what the result will be at this point. But likely something larger than a person, but not terribly heavy, as all of the pieces seem to be made of a durable but light material.]


((OOC: The generator, once built, will be able to be hooked up to the cores and used to recharge them! It runs on burning shit and is rather high tech so it won't even output dirty air (though someone should probably clean the filters now and then). Eizon is not immediately around but if anyone decides to call him, he'll pop in! Aviy can be reached via plurk or IRC pretty easy. This is just an activity mingle thing so figure you can determine how good your character would be at the iKea construction from hell and how fast they get through this.))

Who: these two mentally unsound high schoolers (Ishimaru and Genocider Syo) and YOU!
When: Day 96, Afternoon
Where: Shrine area
What: terrible new arrivals bothering people

[Anyone who happens to stop by Dellen's Shrine today around noon will find a young man sitting in front of it, blocking the way. He's sitting neatly, hands folded in his lap, and would look like quite a model student if it weren't for the bare katana resting loosely in one of his hands and the rather unorthodox uniform. He smiles in a way that almost seems innocuous and friendly, but those paying close attention might notice something vaguely off-putting about it.]
Good afternoon. Might I ask you how it was that you died?

[ Next to him stands a teenage girl, twirling her long, braided pigtails in her hands and smiling devilishly. She pokes and prods at the boy, pulling on his hair and pushing in his cheek. ]
Ki-kuuuuun, this is boring! I don’t have time for this! Make it go faster!

[ She yanks one of his eyebrows. ]
Geeheehaa, these are pretty long! Maybe I could… give them a little cut! Geeheehaahaa!!!

[He seems unfazed by the girl's actions, calmly swatting her hand away, his hand tightening on the hilt of the sword in his hand.]

Who: Anyone
When: Day 94, Night
Where: Anywhere
What:

[ The shadows around HQ tonight seem thicker than usual, particularly around the stairway up to the fifth level. This is probably because of the steadily increasing amount of red lizagons gathering up on the fifth floor, and if you care to venture up there you'll notice them tearing up vines and branches to build nests, using those large feathers that fell before as... decor? ]

[you know who's sick of this place already?

Kida is sick of this place already! In fact, he is going rather stir crazy and is pining horribly for "home".

Thus, when he drops some fruits all over the floor on accident on his way to his apartment he stops, gives a frustrated half-scream, half-growl, and flops dramatically onto the floor.]

This place sucks!
[personal profile] technocracy
Who: Anyone
When: Day 92, Evening
Where: Level 4
What: (=!

[So if you didn't notice, this morning some giant ass feathers fell on level 5, and since then red lizagons have been getting more numerous outside. It's probably looking kind of ominous! They've even moved in to the remaining jungle on level 5, making it unsafe to go up there. Fortunately, they are too big to fit down the staircase to level 4, so as long as you are indoors you are apparently safe, for now... But since it takes on average a five man party to kill just one of the huge red dragons, going outdoors is understandably looking like a bad idea....


It sounds like a good time to talk to the community about this serious development! Thankfully some kind soul made a lot of coffee! It smells fucking delicious and there is plenty of it, both in caf and decaf, with a selection of milks and sweeteners if for some lame reason you don't drink it black.

Of course if you actually drink the coffee, turns out it was poisoned with truth serum. Shit!! It won't get worse with more drinking, and one sip is enough for a full dose.

There are also a bunch of little white squares on the table...? You won't be able to read what is on them until you've drank the coffee, though.

If you want the truth serum to wear off, do at least three of the following:

1. Get someone who hasn't yet to drink some coffee, do not warn them first.
2. Discuss one community project that should be completed by the community in the near future for the betterment of the majority.
3. Confess a crime or social failing that troubles you.
4. Tell another what you think would be just punishment for their crime or social failing and why.
5. If necessary learn of, and then let the relevant party know you are aware one of their private insecurities you could leverage against them in the future.



Have...fun...?]
